Answer:

The James-Lange theory of emotion.

Explanation:

The James-Lange theory of emotion suggests that, like it happens with Samar, every emotion is equivalent to the external arousal that happens to the individual. They believed that, to feel emotion, physiological symptoms must be experienced first, like it happens to Samar. She became frightened, entered in that emotional state because she heard the noise and that increased her heart rate, her respiration, etc.
